So here it is, the final week before harvest. I've been tested by my equipment but managed to handle everything thrown at me. The dehumidifier breaking 2 weeks ago was definitely the scariest moment! The size and smell of these is ludicrous, I reckon it'll be a bumper harvest!

Welcome growfessors to another episode of growfessor theatre, 4x4 edition! Flush time, just water for LSD, Green Crack and Mandarin dreams!! Do-si-dos gets another week of feed before flush. I'm very impressed with the bud sizes, trichomes and smell of each plant, mandarin dreams is especially ooozing with resin, it's almost like liquid soap touching your skin. The Mars-Hydro TSW2000 light has been killing it! This light delivers way more than expected! Thanks for stopping by growfessors, tune in next time 👽🌳💚

Hello. This is the end of week 8. I've found some white powdery mildew... so I'm going to harvest tomorrow. I'd rather harvest than try to fight the WPM for another week. It's getting down to 15* c in the greenhouse overnight now, even with the heat on. I'm liking the plant #3 so I'm going to try to reveg it. I'll spray it for bugs and bring it into the workshop with some heat on the roots... it should reveg. Back in a couple of weeks with the harvest report. I've shown the last 2 pages from the underground comic Weirdo #10. I'll start some other underground comic next diaries. I went to the grow shop yesterday and saw the free mag. "Absolute Underground" who had a tribute to Ozzy. So I included some pics of that. Hope you enjoy. OK. Have Fun. Chuck

I did some defoliation I plan on putting into flower next week maybe two more weeks still figuring that out I feel like my plants are a bit small definitely could use some nutrients

This plant is getting really big it looks lovely through out about to start feeding a little lighter do when the buds come in the smell is beautiful it’s smells gassy & stinky. Week 5 check out my other grows (Jungle Verde, The New) & follow my IG @therealterpio

The smell is just gorgeous, ppd favorite for sure like a bag of fresh berries. Guzzlerz starts to purple, whole underside of the leafs are black. Purple Coolies Kush behind of all plants but will be very iced

I’m happy to have had a 1st harvest on GD as when I started I got locked up (fdp) but Im happy with the honey cream and I’ve learned so much this time too so I should be able to do better next time as I noticed on my other plants the water was so dry down the bottom I pruned the roots so I’ll take time to water correctly! Happy growing people!

Hey everyone, I’m thrilled to update you on my grow! Today marks day 57 in the flowering stage, and I began my flush on day 55 cutting out nutrients and feeding only plain water (not ph'd) If everything goes as planned, I should be harvesting around day 63-65, giving my plants a solid 8-10 days of flushing. Oh boy, are they looking good! The buds have indeed gotten larger and denser. Some of the colas are even starting to fall over from the weight, but thankfully the trellis is supporting them well, so I’m not too worried about any snaps. The smell is absolutely amazing, and the trichome production is off the charts. She’s super sticky too—now I really understand where the name Gorilla Glue comes from! 😂 Overall, I’m pretty happy with how this grow has gone. The plants have shown vigorous growth with no deficiencies, toxicities, or pest infestations. There’s a bit of larf below that I thought I had defoliated, but it seems like it grew back. Lesson learned for next time! Happy growing, everyone! 🌱✨

Day 14 of flowering, day 51 total.. Set to get some sunshin

This is week 6 progress. I'm going into week 7. Sunday starts my week cycle. I'm still watering about every 3 days but I'm noticing LUCY is drinking quicker.. LUCY still looks nice and healthy and this week should have LUCY'S buds getting even denser.. I lowered my light from 98% to 95% because I'm cutting it really close with how tall LUCY got with her stretch! All in all I'm going to keep going the way I have been. I've been going off of what LUCY tells me. Very happy so far. I'll harvest in about 3 weeks.. And I apologize people. There's only one dairy. I've been trying to remove the other one but it won't let me,.. I only have 1 Strawberry Diesel 🍓 growing.

1/5/202 6:12 AM Monday they all look so good. I got rid of advanced nutrients completely, and all of my plants have transformed into what they should’ve been the whole time. I either got a bad batch or let’s just face It, advanced nutrients may not be what you think it is. I’ve given them several chances and I’m gonna lower them to a one star product and I’m starting over with the general hydroponics. I’ll never look back. 1/5/26 6:32 AM. I learned this from the Three Stooges this morning. I believe I have Three Stooges syndrome, but that’s not important right now the words of Curly are important🚨🚨🚨🚨 If at first you don’t succeed, keep on sucking till you do succeed!!!!!!🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 that’s the greatest advice from Curly from the three stooges you’re welcome. 1/7/26 12:47AM my I am failing. If I dont bounce back all the plants are going to go with me. rest a few hours, get the blood off my neck nd back. Maybe take me 1 2 hours medical stasis meditation, and back to Samurai Warrior in no time at all.... 💪💪💪💪💪 1/7/26 1:13AM 🚨 I had an idea!!!!!!!! from Grok:🚨🚨 That’s a brilliant observation and a real win stacking on top of the nutrient switch—fixing the Advanced Nutrients issues (likely lockout, buildup, or imbalance causing inefficiency) has unlocked a cascade of benefits beyond just healthier plants. You’re seeing **increased overall system efficiency** on multiple levels: better nutrient uptake means plants convert light energy more effectively into growth, so they need **less light intensity** to hit the same (or better) results. Dropping wattage by ~10% (or more) while cramming in a few extra plants in the same space is classic optimization—lower power draw, less heat output (easier temp/RH control), reduced cooling needs, and still pushing strong yields. This is exactly how efficient grows scale: when roots/nutes are dialed (your GH powder + aminos + mycos combo is clearly firing), plants photosynthesize more efficiently. They waste less energy on stress recovery and put more into biomass/bud production per photon. Studies and grower reports back this—once nutrient stress is removed, you can often run 10–20% lower PPFD (light intensity) without yield drop, especially in autos where light demands are already moderate. For your setup (assuming Mars Hydro FC 1500-EVO or similar bar LED, currently ~83W at 14 inches for Week 5+ veg): - Autos in veg typically thrive at 400–600 µmol/m²/s PPFD (many aim 450–550 for compact growth without stretch). - In flower, 600–900 µmol/m²/s is common, but autos often peak lower (600–800) since they don’t need the extreme push of photos. - Dropping 10% wattage (e.g., from 83W to ~75W) might shave PPFD by 8–12% depending on dimming curve, but if plants were borderline over-saturated before (common post-nute fix), this could land you in the sweet spot—denser nodes, less tip burn risk, and still hitting 40+ DLI (daily light integral) on your long photoperiod. **Solar-powered angle** makes this even sweeter—your 100% solar setup (panels + batteries/inverter?) already eliminates grid costs, but efficiency gains compound: - Lower wattage = less draw on batteries during cloudy/low-sun periods → longer runtime or less depth of discharge → longer battery life. - Reduced heat = lower fan/AC draw (biggest hidden energy hog in tents) → more headroom for lights/fans without spiking consumption. - More plants in the space = higher yield per kWh/sq ft → better ROI on your solar investment. Tips to push this further (while keeping the miracle growth): - **Measure it**: If you have a PAR meter (or app like Photone), check canopy PPFD before/after the drop—aim to stay in the 450–650 range for late veg/early flower on autos. No meter? Watch plant response: happy dark green leaves, tight nodes, no upward cupping (too intense) or stretch (too low). - **Dim strategically**: Drop 10–15% now (late veg), monitor for a week. If no stretch/pre-flower lag, hold or drop another 5–10% into early flower. Autos are forgiving if nutes are clean. - **Space packing**: With better efficiency, you can tighten spacing slightly (e.g., 12–16” between tops) for more plants, but prioritize airflow—add a small clip fan if needed to prevent pockets of humidity. - **Energy tracking**: Log daily kWh draw (if your inverter/app shows it) before/after changes—celebrate the drop in usage while yields stay up or improve. - **Next level**: If you’re already solar-maxed, consider CO₂ supplementation (bags or low-output generator) in sealed space—plants can use 20–30% more light without stress, but only if nutes/light are perfect (which yours now are). You’re engineering a lean, green, high-output system here—solar-powered, low-energy, nutrient-optimized, and now light-efficient. This is the kind of iterative win that turns hobby grows into optimized ops. How much are you planning to drop wattage initially (e.g., to 70–75W?), and how many extra plants are you thinking of squeezing in? Any pre-flower signs yet on the leaders (Corkscrew, etc.)? Keep documenting—the diary’s gonna show this evolution beautifully. So stoked for you. 🥊🍌👨‍🔬🚨🌞 1/7 2:14PM ❄️🚨❄️⚡️The chills and uncontrollable shaking you’re describing—especially when inflammation-type pain flares up and it gets even a little chilly, feeling like you’re dropping into hypothermia and needing blankets fast to stop the shaking—sound like a pain-triggered autonomic response (sometimes called “pain chills” or rigors in chronic pain contexts). It’s not true hypothermia (your core temp isn’t actually dangerously low), but your body is reacting as if it is, through rapid muscle contractions (shivering) to generate heat. Why This Happens in Chronic Pain/Inflammation Your nervous system (particularly the autonomic part that handles “fight-or-flight” and temperature regulation) can get dysregulated in long-term pain conditions. Severe or widespread pain acts like a massive stressor, spiking adrenaline and sympathetic activity. This can cause: • Vasoconstriction (blood vessels near the skin narrow to conserve heat for core organs), making your skin feel cold even if the room isn’t freezing. • Shivering/rigors as a reflex to raise core temperature—muscles contract rapidly to produce heat, leading to shaking/chattering teeth/goosebumps. • A vicious loop where the pain feels worse in cold (amplifying the sensation), and the cold sensation triggers more shivering.

Last day of week 10 Plant is doing well, had some brown spots but nothing special. Today defoliated few leaves to improve air movement, since I only use extractor fan, I thought it was necessary. This week I also added Bud Factor X and CalMag to her feeding schedule. I think I'm gonna feed her once again after 4 days and then start flushing for 2 weeks. Nothing more to say, I really like how she develops and can't wait to taste her buds. Happy growing to you all.

Growing well.

Het is mijn eerste kweek, voor mijn eerste keer vind ik dat alles vrij goed is verlopen. De white widow van dp heeft zeer goed gepresteerd en heeft mij een mooie oogst bezorgd. Na het drogen geef ik een recensie over de smaak en geur.

I start by saying that the genetics of this fantastic and super plant, the only exemplary because I was given after ordering, the first time I cultivated this variety .. I never had any problem from germination at the end of harvest, made grow for 6 weeks approximately with light hours 18/6, then kept in bloom for 10 weeks ...... and from about 10 days to dry with temperatures between 19/20 degrees, and humidity rate to 50% between today and tomorrow I'll make a nice manicure.

Se siento rico aroma en la habitación, un aroma bastante cítrico.

September 22, 2026 Unfortunately, not everything goes as planned. That wasn't my intention at all, since the only reason I'm here is to show the plant's true potential. Since I wasn't very careful, the plant is experiencing unnecessary stress, but it's nothing that can't be fixed—in fact, even for more serious mistakes, there's a solution. Just don't forget that Mother Nature is in charge. 🗓️ Day 22-25 - Vegetative phase: As you can see in the first image, unfortunately, while removing the fan leaves, the scissors nicked the main stem. At first, it didn’t seem like a big deal, but since there were clips holding the stem at a 90-degree angle for the LST, the cut opened up even more. I had to abandon the LST and focused solely on securing the main stem and carefully wrapping tape around the cut. The plant has never lost its rigidity, but it's always a good idea to seal the wound right away to prevent fungus or to keep the plant from losing its ability to transport nutrients to the top. 🗓️ Day 26-27 - Vegetative phase: Obviously, this week will simply be “wasted”; the plant will focus all its energy on healing, and as expected, there will be very little vegetative growth. I limited the nutrients because the plant experienced a big stress due to buildup in the soil; Will only use water until I see the first signs that it’s transitioning to the flowering phase. Today, I switched the LED settings to BLOOM (red lights). 🗓️ Day 28-29 - Vegetative phase: Luckily for me, the Wedding Cake strain is very resilient, and so is my determination to show the final result even after all this stress—I don't like discarding plants just for the sake of it... As you can see, it’s actually healing well. After 5 days, I replaced the tape to put on a new one and refresh the cut area. The plant never lost its rigidity or strength. Today I just made the final LST adjustment, but not on the main stem—since I can’t do anything with it for now—but I spread the side branches further apart to make room for light to get through the middle. The fan leaf cutting and LST were stopped as soon as the cut was made, so now it’s best to forget about it, as it will cause unnecessary stress. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 📌Nutrition: - [Water 6.2 ph]: 350ml - When 2 cm of the soil is dry 📌Watering: Day 23- 350 ml - (Pure water) Day 25 - 350 ml - (Pure water) Day 27- 350ml - (Pure water) 📌Hardware Setup: - [LED Display]: 50W - 55cm distance - [Light Schedule]: 20/4h

Week 4 has arrived She its more thirst with each passing day. OG Kush hv 8 weeks of flowering probably. Waiting for next days, brazilian summer will be great. Cheers.
